Congratulations! You’ve won the night’s most honorary award For saying that you felt the same, And taking it back after just five days Now look what you did, you made a little girl cry You looked just like Prince Charming Until you pushed her off The monkey bars Don’t you know you shouldn’t play pretend When you hold her heart in the palm Of your hand? She was ready to be a princess bride Maybe one day be your Queen; But you had to go and deceive her, galloping away Leaving a trail of smoke and Funhouse mirrors You sent a letter with an official seal, that Said you could be her friend She really had Believed in you Then you went and changed your mind And your words became so meaningless Like a politician’s speech As if saying it was okay Would really make It so As sleet came down outside, she shook Perhaps not entirely from Cold Forever ended suddenly-- She was falling from cloud nine as you Were falling off the Pedestal The fairytale was done for sure, but What happened once it Ended? Well, the epilogue, it goes like this She dried up all her Tears Your words were nothing but a heap of trash Much like the boy who wrote them She deserves someone someday who has both a spine And a pair Meanwhile, you deserve your prize, the Award for weakest man Our heroine walked out the champ Because now she knows the truth: Relationships don’t ruin things Boys do
